Fantastic finish, that red and silver suit her really well.

I've always admired the little Tiger Moth Prze, and you are doing a wonderful
job building it. By the way, the colour is gorgeous! Well done, my friend...more,
please sir!

Thank you, I am glad you like my Moth...

And it is almost ready. Just four bits including the prop and four aileron cables to be connected to the stick lever under the fuselage.

Beautifully done Prze, the finish is exceptional! A true and magnificent old classic and you've really done it justice!

Thank you, Lance.

And my Moth is completed!

That's beautiful, P.
Very well realised.
Used to see lots of Tiggies flying about, when I was a kid they were quite affordable! But they're much rarer these days. Great to see a nice model of one.

I feel like I could climb in there and close the door behind me!

I agree with William: that is an incredibly realistic model. Suprb finish and details.

I have probably seen that machine in the air many times as it is based at Headcorn - only a few miles from where I live - and frequently seen over Leeds Castle which is even closer to my home.

Thank you for your kind comments.

Especially nice to hear them from someone who saw this aircraft live!

Actually, I felt weird, when I prepared the label for the base, the one with the year -2006. So unusual for me, who usually build models of aircraft which flew 100 years ago

Another fine build to add to your collection.

Well done, Prze!

Excellent looking Tiger Moth. Opening the engine compartment makes an interesting view. The rose color seems a bit strange.

Thanks, Bob and Ken.

As for the red-pinkish colour, it is mostly the WB in my camera which is playing tricks. here are two more shots in varying light conditions.

Probably it is time to take off that old-fashioned camera and organize a proper photo session for the Moth.

Wow! That is a beautiful result, Przemo! One of my favourite aircraft of all time too! Very neatly done and stunning colour scheme! Regards, Marc.

Wonderful work on the 'moth, Prze! The camera doesn't hide your talents,
my friend. I am looking forward to your next project!

Cheers,
Ernie
